スターリングの峠・トップ10

Decent views, though an unexciting mountain.

I don't know what to say. One of the most beautiful passes I've ever driven. Highly recommended.

Hilly but very scenic route with some car free sections and of course coffee/lunch stops.

Climbing the Crow Road north from Lennoxtown (B822) offers a classic Campsie Fells experience with rewarding views towards Glasgow. Settle in for a sustained ascent averaging around 4-5% over approximately 5-6km. The main physical challenge comes in the middle 'wall' section, where the gradient bites hard, reaching up to around 12-14% and demanding significant, steady effort. Experience the stunning panoramic views unfolding behind you as you gain height. As you emerge onto the open moorland near the summit, be prepared for significant exposure to wind, which often defines the final push to the top of this popular Scottish climb.

Beinn nam Eachan is exactly 1000 metres (3,281 ft) high on the OS maps. It's normally run as the last summit of the excellent Tarmachan Ridge from the Ben Lawers car park.

Duke's Pass is the road through the Achray Forest from Loch Achray in the north to Aberfoyle in the south. Currently the surface is better on the Aberfoyle side so it's best to ride north to south and have a better surface for the fast descent. Loch Achray is at about 100m and Aberfoyle is lower at about 20m. The highest point on the pass is at 238m.

At 2,828 feet (862m), Bealach-eadar-dha Beinn is as high as it is hard to say. It is the boulder crowned bealach between Southern Highland twin giants Ben More and Stob Binnein, the highest peaks in Britain south of Tayside. Head south and ascend to sharpely Stob Binnein or ascend to the north for the slightly higher Ben More. Whatever you do, if it's a clear day you'll be greeted by astonishing views of the Southern Highlands.
